My Wife's Coastal Black Bear

I was finally able to get my wife out of the house for a hunting trip this year. We spent a weekend on Alaska's Prince William sound chasing black bears. it was a great time and we saw a lot of great black bears and a couple of monstrous Brownies.

My wife ended up scoring on the third day on a fine boar with a white "V" flashing on his chest. She made the shot at around 80 yards with my .270 Win, shooting handloaded 140 gr Accubonds.

Congrats, that is one heck of a bear!! Did you go self guided or did you use a outfitter? My wife and i would love to do that for our anniversery net year , but were wondering about the cost on something like that.
